He said the residents participated to “prove that they are living life to the fullest and enjoying every minute of it.” Ebel added that they have received positive feedback about the video ever since the staff posted it on YouTube, with some people calling it “inspirational, entertaining and uplifting.”
The video begins with the annual Halloween parade as some residents and staff members walk down the hallway showing off their costumes. It then breaks into “Dynamite” by Taio Cruz as the residents break into dance. The dancing brings cheers claps and laughs from the audience.
